Hi Chris

Debra Dalgleish has some code which will colour the headings where filter
has been applied.

Hi - having read numerous complaints with the inability to easily change
the
'blue arrow' when filtering data with the auto-filter in pre-2007 Excel. I
Personally never had a problem.

Having just bought 2007 - now there is not even a blue arrow. Can we get
something sorted - when working with large spredsheets and less than 100%
zoom, the little grey filter button is very hard to see and can lead to
issues when analysing/viewing data.

Even just getting the blue arrow back would be good - but can't the whole
column header be changed some user defined colour (i.e. bright and
obvious!).
